This amazingly located apartment in the heart of the city has all the comfort you need. You can take a stroll along the river, just 3 minutes away, or hit the historical streets with amazing bars & restaurants. From our side, we provide well-equipped facilities, local tips, and thoughtful personal service for your stay in Porto.

We travel a lot and have a lot of personal experience staying in hotels and airbnbs. We value maximum comfort, which lies in attention to small details. This apartment is our occasional holiday home, and we treat our guests the same way we would like to be treated during other holiday stays.

We also provide you with 100% cotton towels, toiletries, a blow dryer, cooking basics, and kitchenware appropriate for all kinds of cooking. So don't worry about anything. Just bring your personal belongings for the stay, the rest is our hassle.

We provide some international book exchange on our shelves, so feel free to take the book you liked and leave us the one you've already finished reading. We would like to keep this lovely tradition going.

If you need to leave your luggage after check-in, please let us know and we can leave it for you in a locked room downstairs.

The apartment is situated in a lovely neighbourhood with local family restaurants and bars. It is close to the main avenue called Rua de Mouzinho da Silva and the river walk with music and lovely cafes.

Location was fantastic, everything was clean. The apartment is on the 4th floor so there are quite a few stairs to go up. We only had 1 small carryon with us so it wasn’t an issue but it would be difficult for a family with children and large luggage. We would definitely stay here again!

Fantastic location, the property had everything we needed, and was clean and tidy. The staircase in the building as others have mentioned does have a distinct ‘lived in’ smell, but I would absolutely not let this put you off booking this property, as it is literally only the main staircase that is affected.

The property was clean, well-equipped, and in a good location. We wished the laundry situation had been explained in advance, as it required walking down 4 flights of stairs to a shared building laundry space, because of that, we chose not to use it. Overall, though, the space itself was comfortable.

Disliked: Listing accuracy
The best thing about this property was the location within the city. It is indeed very close to the historic centre, so for being outside and touring the city it is excellent. The owners are also very helpful and respond quickly, which is a highlight. Unfortunately, the listing is not very clear about many things regarding the amenities of the property. For one, it is at the top of 4 flights of stairs, while the laundry machines are at the bottom of the building. As well, the second floor bedroom is at the top of a very steep staircase, not shown in pictures. A mid-night washroom trip would not be easy. Finally, the word ‘apartment’ seems to be a more apt description than ‘duplex,’ at least to me. With regards to the state of the property, it was not particularly clean when we arrived, and all the sheets and towels were damp. Luckily they had extras which we used instead.Additionally, the hot water is very inconsistent. Sometimes it will jump from burning hot to cold without you even moving the faucets. Next, the property is also much smaller than it seems in the pictures. As well, there was constant daytime construction in the building right beside us throughout the whole of the stay. It didn’t seem close to being finished when we left. This is not something in the control of the property’s owners, but nonetheless it should be mentioned.

As others mentioned, this duplex is located in a great part of the city and there are good restaurants nearby. The place is comfortable and was good for two friends staying together. The negatives: the bathroom was small, the stairs to the loft with the second bed were extremely steep, and navigating large suitcases up the four flights can be challenging. Additionally, we did not get entry information ahead of our arrival date.

Unbeatable Location

Just one street down to the popular port area and a short uphill walk to major sites. The area offers easy access to cafes and shopping and provides a real taste of city life. I was traveling solo and had plenty of space but, even so, the space is very efficiently designed and updated for comfort.

Short stay in Porto

We loved this place- it was just perfect for our family. The accommodations were great, however with the location of this flat, who would spend time indoors? It’s located right in the heart of Porto, with so much to see and do just outside the door. It was wonderful.
